Minimum age is 18, but most of the benefits are for age 50+

John Cho is 54, Kal Penn is 49.

Households with at least three to four people that meet “very low” to “low” income requirements may qualify to enter Walnut Creek’s below-market rate homeownership program.

The newly constructed homes are more than 2,000 square-feet in size and have three to four bedrooms. The cost of each home ranges from $262,750 to $377,000, according to the city.

The city’s program is run by the nonprofit Bay Area Affordable Homeownership Alliance in partnership with the Community Housing Development Corporation and Mechanics Bank. The bank will provide additional down payment assistance subsidies and a loan subsidy to qualified buyers.

Newly constructed homes, even.

Noice!

What is it? “Harold and Kumar Join AARP”?

Oh absolutely.

You too, and I do appreciate your posts.

By “project” I assume you mean a private mayoral retirement fund.

I tend not to post crime stories, unless it’s positive news or something that I find funny.

There’s too much depressing stuff in the world I really don’t need to hear about.

This sounds like an absolute tragedy. I wonder what the guy with the airsoft gun was going through to be desperate enough do something like this.

You do you though.

Maybe this story resonated with you enough for you to post it.

The Texas State Government will put its best people on the case to find ways to blame the undocumented, California, Obama and Biden.

I can’t believe they weren’t a total complete absolute bigly success.

You’d think those sales of Hollister sweatshirts would have kept them rolling in dough.

/jk Those are by Hollister Co., a clothing company.

But yeah, voting for local office holders who will do basic things like balance the city checkbook, and financial audits.

That’s important stuff, see what happens when you don’t?

So do your research and vote!

It’s such a weird mall, and that particular space is one of the few places in the City that’s only reasonably accessible by car in a city where a lot of people don’t use cars every day.

It’s not like the Target space in the same mall where a few major bus routes stop right in front.

T&T is kind of like the Big Box chain version of an Asian grocery store, so they depend on a level of traffic that has never gone to that particular space.

And the parking available to that space is a constraint.

Even when Best Buy used to be there, the parking lot got full, and there weren’t that many customers inside.

The fact is he doesn’t have to make any public promises means that he’ll just do whatever his financial backers tell him to do once he’s in office.

And that’s going to be awful.

Still the lesser of two evils than voting a MAGA into office though.

Me neither, but supposedly his collection of Korean contemporary art is quite respectable.

The fact that he’s a K-Pop superduperstar is just to draw crowds of his fans into the museum, which reminds me of the Simpsons planetarium episode for the lengths the museum operators have to go to keep a supposed civic institution financially solvent.

And he’s got a lot of fans.

F.

I gotta get rid of my Roku now. Not that I was using it much.

So registered sex offenders can’t make a living? Would you rather have them on welfare?

A wide variety of innocuous crimes and misdemeanors, such as public urination within range of a school or park, or allowing lewd content to be visible on a screen near a child, can land you on the sex offender list.

If I was a Republican, I would pay Trump not to hold rallies in my state.

The Trump administration on Thursday sued California over its handling of voter fraud claims, asking a federal court to immediately bar the state from counting ballots from about 20,000 voters statewide — many in Los Angeles County — whom the administration alleges are “likely noncitizens.”

The lawsuit is highly unusual, particularly given that California voters have already begun voting in the Nov. 3 midterms via mail ballots, experts said.

It’s also highly inappropriate and based on questionable federal data that have proved wildly inaccurate in other states, state officials said.

“This is a sad, desperate attempt by Trump to use his politicized Justice Department to try to suppress California voters just three weeks before Election Day,” Gov. Gavin Newsom wrote on X. “Courts have made clear the federal government has no role in running state elections. We will defend free and fair elections in the Golden State and call out every authoritarian attempt to undermine our democracy.”

That’s true.

I’ve often said that movies were better when they were financed by studios and producers, and sometimes the mob.

There were hits and a lot of misses, but there was a lot of creativity.

After costs spiraled out of control and the banks got involved in financing, every proposed production went into a spreadsheet, and everything became about whether the movie had enough star power, edit: or had a popular IP, or was a sequel.

Controversial topics, and experimental new ground are considered too risky for the bank’s money.

Lead being a soft material is a part of it too.

A lead bullet deforms on impact, getting wider, which causes more damage as it passes through flesh.

Some fetishists will be disappointed.
